5K Training Continued

Another day consciously being healthy. This is starting to be a drag in a lot of ways and kind of exhilarating in others.   The drag part is that you actually have to give a bit of thought to what you do with and too your body all day, everyday. Chicken or beef, fruits and vegetables or potato chips and cookies.  Take a nap or go for a walk. You see, not just business as usual. You actually have to think about yourself as you go through the day, that's the drag part.  The exhilarating part is buying the first pair of jeans since High School with a 32 inch waist, realizing all the sizes of clothing have gone smaller except your hat size and shoe size, being full of calm energy at the end of the day, etc. That's all pretty cool. Especially for an old guy like me!!!

January 18, Walked 1 mile at lunch. Later at the gym, 18 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes of Abs and 30 minutes of light weights working on the shoulders and back.

More to follow.
